The maximum current draw from the USB connection is 500mA.

There is no need for a voltage regulator because the USB connection is already regulated by the USB output from your PC or laptop. The ATmega328p can also be powered via the USB connection, that I use a lot in my projects. The NCP1117 provides a stable output voltage of 5V and a maximum current of 800mA for the ATmega328p. Technically the maximum input voltage is 20V but because at 20V the voltage regulator is producing a lot of heat and would break after a short time period, it is recommended to supply an input voltage between 7V and 12V. A lot of LEDs at 20 mA each is quite significant to the on-board regulator.The NCP1117ST50T3G is connected to the VIN pin and the DC power jack. Note that "drawing power" includes powering things connected to output pins, such as LEDs. My main concern with all of this is really stability, this is going into a crawl space near a door and I don't want it to implode and catch fire for example. Note: Do not attempt to build one yourself. It's hard for me to judge by looking at pictures of how big these buck converters are, do they make them small enough to fit into a single/double gang box for example?
That straight away means it requires a heatsink That makes it much bigger than a switchmode buck regulator. A 7805 dissipates the excess energy as heat. You fail to understand the connection here. Would it be possible to take a LN7805 for example and feed that directly into the 5v on the Arduino? I don't think that would be as efficient as a buck converter, but it would be much smaller and I could soldier that to a custom PCB with the transistor for the door strike. If you use a switching regulator, you can minimize dissipated power.
But the power still needs to be dissipated. You could use a voltage regulator or zener diode to reduce the voltage to 7-8V. How would I go about taking this 12VDC 3A input and reducing it down to around 9VDC for the Arduino Uno R3 to handle more comfortably? You can decrease power dissipation in the on-board regulator by connecting any external circuitry to the Arduino power pins.ĮDIT: Before anyone else feels the need to correct the above statement, I meant to say to "not connect to Arduino power pins". I tested my 12VDC 3A power supply on Vin in hopes of not releasing the magical smoke inside, and everything works fine but the voltage regular does get extremely hot well enough to burn my finger. I'm also using an HP548A logic clip to monitor all of the pins on the PROMs that can draw up to 50mA. I happen to be testing some bipolar PROMs that draw up to 100mA. I only connect Arduino ground with my circuit. When I connect circuits to Arduino, I supply the circuit from a different power supply. If you don't draw any power from the Arduino for any other circuitry, it may be okay.
So what you seriously need is a 5 V regulated supply, if you have 12 V, then one of the cheap and readily-available "buck" regulators from eBay and such is the most appropriate source, fed into the "5V" pin. And even then it was limited because an unloaded 9 V transformer-rectifier-capacitor supply would generally provide over 12 V which the regulator could barely handle. Its history is that it was really for demonstration use of the bare board back in the very beginning of the Arduino project when "9V" transformer-rectifier-capacitor power packs were common and this was a practical way to power a lone Arduino board for initial demonstration purposes. The on-board regulator is really a bit of a decoration. In essence, the recommendation is not to use "Vin" or the "barrel jack" at all. I read that it supports 7-12V input and that 12V is not recommended as it will make the voltage regulator on the Arduino very hot if not burn up overtime. I was hoping to also power my Arduino off the same power supply using the Vin.
